The Sweetheart Goal!



Recommended Posts

Congratulations Hazeleyegrl!!!!! Whoooooo Hooooooo!!!!!

I haven't been doing so well lately. I definitely haven't been eating like I should and I have a leg injury, so I haven't been exercising either. I go for a fill tomorrow (hopefully they will give me one), so maybe that will help. The scales keep going up and down, I lose and gain the same few pounds, so I hope I will make my goal, but I don't know. Even if I don't, I'm still proud of the weight I have lost.

I would definitely be up for a St. Paddy's Day Challenge, good idea Kimmie !!! Shall we set up a new thread after Valentines Day ? I have a function to go to on the 15th, I would love to knock off a few lbs before then !!!!!

How about a St. Patty's day challenge? I like the month long challenges! :mad:

Sounds good to me, St. Patty's Day and Easter are about a week apart, so it doesn't make a difference to me which one we use. I'm up for anything!

ALSO' date=' SINCE GOAL TIME IS NEARING, SHOULD WE BE CONSIDERING HOW WE'RE GOING TO DO THE EASTER CHALLENGE? HOW MANY DAYS BETWEEN VALENTINES AND EASTER? HOW MUCH WEIGHT SHOULD THE GOAL BE? ETC????? SOMEONE WANNA THINK ABOUT STARTING A NEW THREAD FOR THE NEW EASTER/SPRING CHALLENGE??? [/i']

Okay, if no one else wants to take on the next challenge, I will. I agree with Kimmie, I think St. Patricks Day would be closer to a one month challenge. I have some really great ideas for this challenge, so if ya'll don't mind, I'll take this one on and someone else can pick up the next one! We can do some sort of rotation or something!

do you think you could go ahead and set up the thread for the St Patty's Day thing so that way maybe more people will have time to decide to get involved? I don't see any harm in just preparing the way, but not officially starting it until Feb 15th or so. Just an idea, but by all means, I think its great if different people get involved with planning the challenges/goals! Diversity maybe the key that we all need, I know that different things will work better for some then others, so its great that we have different creative minds putting together stuff! I'm excited about the next challenge/goal!

AND...for those of you still working on the "Sweetheart Goal", DO NOT GIVE UP!!! It can be done, and its just a "goal" so even if you do not make it, you are still better off then where you started out a month ago! KEEP up the Losing!

xoxo, Christie

Yes, I am working on all the details and I will try to post the challenge in the morning. I am really excited about it. I just got a fill today and I am hoping that it will help me get back on track.

I'm still working on the Sweetheart Goal. I really hope I make it!

Go for it Georgia ! Thanks for posting the new challenge, this one I will be focused for ! I go for a fill tonight - #3 - he does 1 cc at a time (SIGH) I suppose it's good that way but I have no patience.

I am so glad I found this thread, I have been kind'of down on myself at the slow progress, I am hoping this fill will kick things up a bit. Also I need to get my ars back to the gym.

Thank-you all for the challenge and the inspiration !!!

Woo Hoo !

Okay, guys..........the scales are up 2 lbs :smile:. I had a terrible week last week and I am paying for it. I did get a fill yesterday, so I'm hoping it will help. I don't think I am going to make my goal, but I am on liquids for another day so maybe I will at least get back down to 264. Anyway, I'm still better off than I was when I started. I went ahead and posted my stats on the St. Patty's Day challenge thread. I am definitely going to stay more focused this time.

I made my goal! I can't believe it! On New Years, I was 251. This morning, I weighed in at 235! I have NEVER been below 240 in my entire adult life. AND, to top it off, I forgot my jackets in my car last night (when I carpooled with DH), and I live in the mountains where it's cold. DH gave me one of his jackets...and it fit PERFECTLY! I told him he may never get it back!

This is amazing!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
